Large Hadron Collider Enables Hunt For 'God' Particle To Complete 'Theory Of Everything'

ScienceDaily (May 29, 2008) — When the world's most powerful subatomic particle collider begins gathering data this summer, it will be a major milestone for a number of University of Washington scientists.

The UW, led by professors Henry Lubatti in physics and Colin Daly in mechanical engineering, played a central role in designing and fabricating nearly 90,000 tubes that are key to the workings of the Atlas detector. Atlas is one of six particle physics experiments that are part of the Large Hadron Collider at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland.

Physicists the world over are hoping that Atlas will help unlock some deep scientific mysteries and perhaps even lead to discovery of the Higgs boson, sometimes called "the God particle" because it is believed its discovery will refine the understanding of exactly how the universe came to be and how it functions, and how mass came to be in the first place.

Like I said, Gator said that "any" NUer is welcome here. His word, not mine. I assume that Gator means what he says.

Can we talk about the Hadron Collider now that the formalities are out of the way?

And I say you are not welcome here, we don't want you here, user the browsers back button, and piss off.

You have nothing to say that any of us wish to hear.

Sonnabend is just a bigoted old loon, ignore him.

I'm pretty excited about this experiment.
